The unrighteous thinks
His matter is being discussed
The wicked lives
In constant panic
Let him be ignored
Allow him run helter skelter
Their behavior
Will cause them restlessness
This was Ifa's declaration
To the untruthful
Who lives in constant fear
Day and night
You'd better be of good character
You'd better live righteously
Ye unrighteous soul
Quit running about
Like a fugitive...
Ifa teaches us to imbibe the spirit of Ìwà pẹlẹ. We should strive to do good at all times.
Life is an echo. What you send out comes back to you. What you sow, you reap. What you give, you get. What you see in others exist in you. Remember life is an echo, it will always get back to you.
